# Authing - CSharp

The Authing C# SDK consists of two parts: ManagementClient and AuthenticationClient. All operations performed in ManagementClient are performed as an administrator, including modules such as managing users, managing roles, managing authority policies, and managing user pool configuration. All operations in AuthenticationClient are performed as the current terminal user, including methods such as login, register, modify user information, and log out.

You should set the initialized ManagementClient instance to a global variable (initialize only once), and AuthenticationClient should be initialized one for every request.

# Installation

Install via Nuget:

Install-Package Authing.ApiClient

# Using the management module

Initializing ManagementClient requires userPoolId (user pool ID) and secret (user pool key):

You can click here Learn how to get UserPoolId and Secret (opens new window).

using Authing.ApiClient;

var managementClient = new ManagementClient("AUTHING_USERPOOL_ID", "AUTHING_USERPOOL_SECRET");

Now the ManagementClient() instance is ready to use. For example, you can get the list of users in the user pool:

var managementClient = new ManagementClient("AUTHING_USERPOOL_ID", "AUTHING_USERPOOL_SECRET");
var data = await managementClient.Users.List();

# Use authentication module

Initializing ManagementClient requires userPoolId (user pool ID):

You can learn how to get UserPoolId (opens new window) here.

using Authing.ApiClient;

var authenticationClient = new AuthenticationClient("AUTHING_USERPOOL_ID");

Then you can register and log in and other operations:

var username = GetRandomString(10);
var password = GetRandomString(10);
var user = await authenticationClient.loginByUsername(
    username,
    password,
)

After logging in, methods such as update_profile that require users to log in are available:

await authenticationClient.UpdateProfile(new UpdateUserInput() {
  Nickname = "Nick",
})

You can also set the AccessToken parameter after initialization, without calling the LoginByXXX method every time:

using Authing.ApiClient;

var authenticationClient = new AuthenticationClient("AUTHING_USERPOOL_ID");
authenticationClient.AccessToken = "access token";

Execute the UpdateProfile method again and find that it is also successful:

await authenticationClient.UpdateProfile(new UpdateUserInput() {
  Nickname = "Nick",
})
